Meedo, I do believe this will be the first recipe I try of yours... It sounds too good not to try, AND easy!
Oh that looks sinfully good :)
This is very interesting, the way you make yours dry.
We make a similar dish only it is wet and soupy, from the milk added. Makes me crave some right now :)
This is really interesting, and I'd bet it tastes great. I guess I'm just not used to seeing pasta used in a sweet recipe!
This looks a real easy treat to cook. I have never seen vermicelli cooked in this way before. The flavours sound perfect. Delicious. :-)
We usually prepare this dish and it is a favorite in my house. I will try your version this time, thnx for sharing the recipe!

We do the same thing over here, but it's called 'saweeya'. It is divine with a cup of strong kahwa (coffee) or some tea with milk. Yuuuuuumo! :)

hey,we brown the pasta for the rice especially when we cook Egyptian rice.

just before serving fry the egg sprinkle the top with ground cardamom, saffron & sugar then serve it over the Balalit.
